Summary
After researching on Technology causing obesity I found the benefits and disadvantages of technology. I found that computer and Nintendo/Playstation games causes alot of obesity as children are distracted by there computer or TV that they sit there for up to 6 hours daily. It is recommended for a child to participate in 60 minutes of moderate to vigarious activity daily but this has not been achieved as children get straight home from school and stay on these technology resources for many hours. The children aren't all the blame for this behaviour because parents aren't neccessaily stopping there child from this technology and they arn't encouraging them to play out doors with friends or with a sporting club. The new Nintendo Wii is shown to be a very positive nintendo game as it had various types of sports you can play and is also fun at the same time. I still think that technology is causing a massive increase in our country now becoming the fattest country in the world.
